Day 9
Felt so good good that it seemed an opportunity to continue. Every day is different. Yesterday little or no hunger, today
hunger! Mornings are slow.
Chuck has left for 10 days with family.
Hope to get some things done today - that will depend on energy levels. Everything I do seems an accomplishment. Restless
on the cushion and greater awareness in every day activities.

Day 6
Last night walked around Lake Junaluska slowly and broke a serious sweat. It wasn't even warm! Must have been a good thing.
Felt great. We sat for a long time enjoying cool night air.
Now aware of resisting, fighting, and avoiding the hunger - probably why I felt miserable during most of this fast. Duh!
Don't resist, Oland.
Today awoke without a coated tongue. Energy level good, and felt like a different person mentally. Hunger level has diminished
- thank goodness.
Watched a wonderful movie last night "Off the Map." Will probably break fast and eat fruit day after tomorrow.

Day 5
Energy level is low. Hunger though it comes in waves - has not abated much. Activities have been limited, and just can't
deal with some things - ie there are some errors on the website and many things to do that don't require much physical activity.
TV sounds good - ! For a day or two was engrossed in escape via web research on family ancestors. It's an odd state this
lassitude that borders on depression.
